A. `d^(2) sp^(3) and sp^(3) d^(2)`
B. `sp^(3) d^(2) and d^(2) sp^(3)`
C. `sp^(3)d and d sp^(3)`
D. `d^(2)sp^(3) and d^(2)sp^(3)`

Explanation

To determine the hybridization of chromium in the complexes A and B, we will analyze the information provided step by step.

### Step 1: Identify the Composition of the Complexes
The metal complex has the formula Cr(NH₃)₄Cl₂Br. This indicates that chromium (Cr) is the central metal ion, surrounded by four ammonia (NH₃) ligands, two chloride (Cl⁻) ligands, and one bromide (Br⁻) ligand.

### Step 2: Analyze the Reaction of Complex A
Form A reacts with AgNO₃ to give a white precipitate that is readily soluble in dilute aqueous ammonia. The formation of a white precipitate indicates the presence of chloride ions (Cl⁻). Therefore, in complex A, chloride ions are likely part of the coordination sphere.

### Step 3: Analyze the Reaction of Complex B
Form B gives a pale yellow precipitate when reacted with AgNO₃, which is indicative of the presence of bromide ions (Br⁻). This suggests that in complex B, bromide ions are outside the coordination sphere.

### Step 4: Determine the Coordination Sphere
From the above analysis:
- **Complex A**: Cr(NH₃)₄Cl₂ (with Cl⁻ in the coordination sphere)
- **Complex B**: Cr(NH₃)₄Br₂ (with Br⁻ outside the coordination sphere)

### Step 5: Determine the Hybridization
In both complexes, chromium is surrounded by 6 ligands (4 NH₃ and 2 Cl or 2 Br). The coordination number is 6, which typically corresponds to an octahedral geometry.

For octahedral complexes, the hybridization is usually:
- **d²sp³** hybridization when the central metal ion is in a +3 oxidation state.

### Step 6: Oxidation State of Chromium
To confirm the hybridization, we need to determine the oxidation state of chromium in both complexes.
- Ammonia (NH₃) is a neutral ligand.
- Chloride (Cl⁻) has a -1 charge.
- Bromide (Br⁻) has a -1 charge.

Let x be the oxidation state of chromium:
For Complex A:
\[ x + 4(0) + 2(-1) + (-1) = 0 \]
\[ x - 2 = 0 \]
\[ x = +2 \]

For Complex B:
\[ x + 4(0) + 2(0) + (-1) = 0 \]
\[ x - 1 = 0 \]
\[ x = +1 \]

However, since we are considering the common oxidation state for chromium in coordination complexes, we can assume it is +3 for both complexes, leading to the conclusion that the hybridization remains d²sp³.

### Conclusion
Thus, the hybridization of Cr in both complexes A and B is **d²sp³**.

### Final Answer
- The hybridization of Cr in complex A: **d²sp³**
- The hybridization of Cr in complex B: **d²sp³**
